Hanukkah is a special, sacred holiday that’s all about celebration and traditions. While some families exchange gifts on all eight nights, others prefer to keep the focus on the Festival of Lights itself and do small gifts, or none at all. (If this is your first Hanukkah, which takes place from December 10 to December 18 this year, it’s a good idea to touch base with your hosts to find out if there are any specific traditions they partake in.) To help you out, we’ve rounded up 30 thoughtful, heartfelt (and affordable) Hanukkah gifts for loved ones, from kids to grandparents and everyone in between.
